CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – SpaceX’s first launch since a rocket explosion at the pad has slipped to January.
The company said Wednesday it needs more time. So instead of launching in mid-December, SpaceX will try in January.
SpaceX has been grounded three months since the dramatic accident, which originated in the upper stage of the Falcon rocket. The next Falcon to fly will carry 10 satellites for Iridium Communications, and launch from Southern California.
